Sal from E

This past week I've been in California for my dear friend Chrissy's wedding. It was a great week, but a total whirlwind and just flew by. On Thursday night Chrissy and Chris (yes, her husband's name is Chris...I know, how cute :)) had a "meet and greet" for the bridal party at this cool bar in Encinitas. We're all sitting around chatting and eating when fellow bridesmaid, Kelly, says "hey, isn't that Sal from E over there?" I look over and see him but am not convinced its him so I take out my little point and shoot camera, zoom in as close as I can (all the while trying to be totally sly of course) and snap his pic. As I'm looking at the picture I feel this person peek over my shoulder and he says "you just had to ask!" DOH!!! Caught red handed! I was SO embarrassed!!! So yeah, Sal from E news was in fact there and was super nice to me in spite of my trying to sneak a picture like a total moron. I turned around and he stuck his hand out to shake mine and said "hi, I'm Sal." I said "um, I know who YOU are!" :) We both had a good laugh and he said "so, you want to take a picture for real?" So we did! Thanks Sal, not only for being a great sport but for being so nice and humoring the lame girl trying to sneak a picture, you rock.

Up above I linked Sal's name to an article on him for those of you unfamiliar w/ who he is but here it is again.

Of course you see a celeb without me.....I guess I did get to see Tony Danza when I was with you a few years back but come on, does he really count as a celeb? :-)

I'm glad you knew he was famous....I wouldn't have had a clue, but how great for him to be so nice and friendly and how fun for you to meet him...and yes, what a cute pic of you!
